Hey guys,
I've been trying to get bhyve to install FreeBSD-stable for the past day
on a -current machine:
FreeBSD dan 10.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 10.0-CURRENT #0 r248291: Fri Mar 15
00:58:03 PDT 2013 root at dan:/usr/obj/usr/trees/head/sys/GENERIC amd64
The stable snapshot I'm using to install is from here:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/amd64/amd64/ISO-IMAGES/9.1/FreeBSD-9.1-STABLE-amd64-20130216-r246877-bootonly.iso
What will happen is during the extract process the install will hang.
No network IO happens and on the host I see bhyve's CPU hit 100% for
each core assigned.
For reference this is the bhyve command invoked via Neel's "vmrun.sh".
0 3915 3908 0 103 0 2122208 103428 - R+ 2 1048:45.75
/usr/sbin/bhyve -c 2 -m 2048 -M 0 -AI -H -P -g 0 -s 0:0,hostbridge -s

3:0,virtio-blk,../FreeBSD-9.1-STABLE-amd64-20130216-r246877-bootonly.iso
-S 31,uart,stdio freebsd-stable
I tried to gdb the bhyve process but that was bad news. Is there a set
of steps usually taken to help pinpoint what is going on when we this state?
thank you,
-Alfred
